Victoria Park Chronicles

Silly young Ravi,
accustomed he's been -
To the clear trails in the park,
Even in harsh cold he's seen!

Began to wonder when at a corner he found,
A thin white veil,
Covering the ground!

No footprint he could see!
No mallards! No geese!
"Oh! what has this trail become!" - he muttered as he leaves.

Deep within himself,
he still does hold,
A truth he has simply known -
If you live in Kitchener downtown,
There is no better place to go, 
For an early morning round..!!

(Dedicated to Aesop, whose Ant and the cricket inspired this one!)
